The First Empress - Chapter 11
Chapter 11 Meet An Old Friend
Bu Linglong raised her beautiful eyes and a delicate face appeared under Huo Zhe Zi!
Familiar, familiar! Long time no see, but also as if deep in the mind, will not forget!
The youth’s waist was accompanied by a precious sword, and his name was Ye He Guyun, and his anger surpassed Xiao Han’s. Bu Linglong would never forget this youth called Xie Yunxiao!
“Linglong, long time no see!” A beautiful arc appeared at the corner of her mouth, reminding Linglong of this bright and lively “chivalrous man”!
Saying that he was a chivalrous person was also a self-proclaimed chivalrous person! Thinking about it carefully, he looked a bit like a chivalrous person!
The year before the first year of Ning De’s reign, the previous emperor. Summer! It couldn’t stop Bu Linglong’s determination to enter the palace! Under the blazing sun, Linglong’s eyes still seemed to have a trace of happiness. To be exact, it was excitement, the excitement of quickly entering the palace!
Bu Linglong knew very well that there would be a chance to ascend to the heavens in this palace, and at this moment, it was also a step by step exquisite!
The more anxious he was, the more someone blocked his path.
The leader had a red-eyed, black face, dark hair, and a long beard. Even Bu Linglong knew that these people were definitely not good people!
As expected, the leader said embarrassedly, “Miss, are you in a hurry? Why don’t you stay for a cup of tea on such a hot day?”
Bu Linglong felt bad, but she could only smile and greet him, “Thank you for your kindness, big brother. I’m really in a hurry to get there, but it’s not easy to stop!”
The leader’s face darkened and he angrily said, “I don’t know how to appreciate your kindness. Who doesn’t recognize me, Duke Crimson Marquis, within a radius of several dozen kilometers? Look at your delicate little face. If I forcefully seize you to become my wife, who would dare to say a single word?” The rest of them had smiles on their faces. This smile was definitely not a good one!
Bu Linglong naturally knew that she was doomed, so she turned around to escape. Duke Crimson Marquis waved his hand, and a few people had already grabbed Bu Linglong, no matter how she shouted!
The few of them dragged Bu Linglong along for a few steps, but they heard a voice not far away shouting, “Son of Heaven, in broad daylight, how could there be a villain like you who is lawless!”
Everyone followed suit and saw a handsome young man with a treasured sword on his waist and a graceful demeanor! When Duke Chi Hou saw that the youth seemed to be so weak, he smiled embarrassedly and said, “Today, there really are some people who are not afraid of death. Here, I, Duke Chi Hou, am the heavens!”
The young man was not angry, he replied, “This one is also unfair. As long as you let this girl go, I won’t bother with you anymore!”
When Duke Chi Hou heard this, he smiled and said, “Hey, brothers, teach him a lesson. A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger!” When the subordinates heard this, they all raised their sabers and pounced towards the youth!
However, the youth was not as weak as he looked. In just three or two strokes, he had already put a few people to the ground. When Duke Crimson Marquis saw this scene, he was furious and picked up a simple saber to welcome him!
Those who dare to dominate here are indeed capable! The youth was no longer as smooth as before. Duke Crimson Marquis directly slashed at the youth’s face. Although the youth hastily dodged, he was able to tell that he was much stronger than the person just now!
Hearing the sound of wind coming from the blade, beads of sweat appeared on the youth’s forehead! In just a few moves, the youth had already been struck by a few simple sabers, and Bu Linglong was watching anxiously from the side!
Not to mention that if the youth lost, he would fall into the hands of a thief. Just because of the friendship of the youth saving him, Bu Linglong’s heart could not allow him to lose!
The youth knew that he was invincible, and he grew wise in a hurry. A flaw was left for Duke Crimson Marquis. Duke Crimson Marquis fiercely slashed towards the youth’s chest. The youth endured the pain and stabbed at Duke Chi Hou’s thigh!
Duke Crimson Marquis fell to the ground in pain. The youth held Bu Linglong’s hand and hurriedly ran away!
Speaking of which, this was the first time that Bu Linglong had such intimate contact with a man …
Although he escaped from the bandits, the youth was also seriously injured. Bu Linglong found an inn to stay with him and a doctor.
Half a month later, only after the youth had almost recovered did Bu Linglong continue on her path to the palace. The youth also continued his journey around the world!
As her thoughts flew by, Bu Linglong only knew that this man was called Xie Yunxiao, and that he was a chivalrous man! However, there was a complicated feeling in Xie Yunxiao’s heart …
Bu Linglong put away her thoughts and said to the old friend in front of her, “Why did you come here?”
Xie Yunxiao looked at the face that had been separated for a year, but was even more exquisite. After a long time, he said, “I’ve been paying attention to you at the HeGong banquet today.”
Hearing this slightly ambiguous words, Bu Linglong’s face immediately turned red. However, for a moment, she asked doubtfully, “Why did you also appear at the banquet of the HeGong?”
Xie Yunxiao’s expression darkened as he said, “I am now a guest of the Seventh Prince! I came with him to the palace for a banquet today and accidentally saw you among the many concubines, so I inquired about you. Only then did I come to Qixia Palace to catch up with you. However, you are even more charming than a year ago!”
As she spoke, Bu Linglong’s expression darkened as she said, “A year ago, I accidentally entered His Highness’ Mansion. It was the blessing of the heavens that allowed Huiqi to become the Emperor. It was as if he was able to attain the Dao by himself. A chicken and a dog ascended to the heavens. We also came to this palace courtyard!” Bu Linglong sighed and said, “However, this Deep Palace courtyard is really like a rumor. There are people who are happy and others who are worried!” Of course, Bu Linglong belonged to the “someone worried”!
He didn’t want Xie Yunxiao to say hatefully, “Do you think this is the protection of the heavens? Of course, there is a story that has to be told! The seventh prince, Hui Ye, was originally an unquestionable candidate for the emperor, so this change of situation naturally has that secret!”
When Bu Linglong heard Xie Yunxiao say this, she was also shocked. However, she would not ask because she did not want to know, or she did not want to know, but what she knew was that Xie Yunxiao’s words were correct!
Bu Linglong sighed lightly. “I saw that Hui Ye was already drunk before the Emperor came to the banquet. He didn’t seem to have done anything at all. Why are you under his door?”
A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Xie Yunxiao’s mouth as he replied, “This is where His Highness is brilliant! He’s just hiding it from others! Just like Hui Qi back then, although he has been hiding his strength and keeping a low profile, what he is waiting for is a chance to rise again!”
Bu Linglong was slightly shocked and said, “I didn’t expect Hui Ye’s appearance to be nothing more than an illusion. Looks like His Highness’s mansion is quite deep!”
Saying this, Bu Linglong was also faintly worried. After all, Huiqi was her own man!
But Xie Yunxiao is also his savior …
Not long after, Xie Yunxiao continued, “Of course His Highness will not sink like this. Although he is unable to change the overall situation now, he has many eyes and ears in the palace. When a suitable opportunity comes, His Highness will definitely be able to accomplish great things!”
However, Bu Linglong said, “Why don’t you stay in this palace? I can at least repay you for saving your life …”
Xie Yunxiao refused before Linglong could finish her sentence, “Linglong, what I want is not a life without food and clothing. As a chivalrous person, I naturally have to have my own accomplishments! You must be more careful in the palace!”
Without waiting for Bu Linglong to answer, she grabbed the window and turned around before leaving. She said meaningfully, “Linglong, one day, I will take you away from this complicated court …”
An afterimage was left in the darkness, leaving Bu Linglong alone to recall!
The imperial court is changeable and complicated, but why did Xie Yunxiao take me out of the palace …
Bu Linglong didn’t want to think about Xie Yunxiao’s words, but she was lying on the couch, thinking about the Seventh Prince that Xie Yunxiao had just mentioned. Although she had the intention to tell on him, Linglong didn’t want to harm Xie Yunxiao at all!
Moreover, if it weren’t for Xie Yunxiao’s confidential words, how could he speak so eloquently!
